Career Pathway Assignment
I interviewed Chris Castillo, from WestCal. He is a politician and currently holds the position of a state coordinator. He received a doctorate in philosophy from Fordham university. Chris was born in the United States while, both his mother and father are from Guanajuato. Chris is currently a democrat however, in the past he used to be a republican for eight years. He was part of Prop 47. Prop 47 is “Criminal Sentences, and Misdemeanor Penalties.” About two years ago if an individual was caught with marijuana the individual would be charged with a felony. However, with Prop 47 the felony would become a misdemeanor. Chris could not have achieved his current position if it was not for education, struggle, and his …show more content…
The only job he has had in the industry was as a carpenter. He helps recruit individuals and sometimes mentors them. He has had many mentors along his path to success such as, J.P and Maxine Waters. What caught my attention was the Black Op’s Campaign. I was amused how a politician can destroy the reputation of another. There is no connection between you and your opponent however, you can tamper with the system by harming their campaign with social media. Professors should promote the career pathways. Not only does it promote higher education but, it also gives a hands full experience to the individual. The career pathways that JP created helps the Los Angeles Trade Tech College as well. The pathways assignment takes off some of the burden of the college. Student success has many different meanings for different people. Chris suggests that the best way to be successful is to have degrees and to have a job in their field. It is better to have experience in your field so you have a higher possibility of being contracted. In politics, it is not what you know, it is who you know. One cannot be successful without contacts. As Chris explained it is very hard to continue the pathway of success without relationships and contacts with …show more content…
I am delighted that I could do the Career Pathways Assignment. Not only did Chris give me knowledge but, he gave me ways on how to be successful. Contacts, and relationships is a must need to achieve goals in the political field. Chris stated, “In politics it is not what you know, it is who you know.” Along this path of success, I truly now understand what it means to be successful. There is a long journey for me to reach success but, determination, knowledge, contacts, and relationships is what will make me successful. My former major was Aerospace Engineering but, now that I have seen what politics truly is, eagerness makes me want to change to politics. While, taking your class JP I understood right away from the beginning that politics is my calling. As I interviewed Chris Castillo I had no problems speaking. He is a living prodigy of all the examples he gave me. Chris could not have reached where he is if it were not for his mentors (JP, Maxine Waters). He went through a process to reach where he is. I must develop the master plan, that will make me successful. Once I graduate with sixty units from LATTC, I will enroll myself in the military where my tuition of university could be paid. When I graduate from military university I will run for city council of Los Angeles. As I earn both popularity and money I will be in search of a political job where I can be mentored. There are countless things
